Vintech X73

Since 1997, Vintech has been manufacturing quality pro audio equipment based on original classic designs that have become standards in the industry. The X73 is a single-channel microphone preamp/equalizer based on the venerable 1073 channel strip module, with the original circuit design, the same polystyrene capacitors, and the same transformers, ensuring that the X73 sounds exactly like the classic 1073 did back in the day, when the Neve unit was brand-spanking new!

Note: The X73 requires an external power supply. Please contact your Sweetwater Sales Engineer with any questions.
